Thanks a lot, the mount works smoothly without a problem. So I'm with ceph version 0.23~rc (a7ed2ee05dc7453942018d7876401c28d3918214) All testings are done in a single high-end machine. For btrfs method, I get a freeze/hang while reading/writing to it. It's the step that I've never gone passed :( A few read/write copies are okay, I can drag/drop from the ubuntu desktop, cp, and read files back. so far so good.. However, whenever I tried to do anything large e.g., copying a directory (total 2.3GB consisting 52,000 files), running large dd (>1GB+), dbench or any heav IOs,, things just lock up, once at this point, I can't read the directory and I can't unmount, basically leading me to restart the system. It is reproducible and can provide some debugging info needed, just tell me which one :) Some other issues. when I start the ceph, how can I really make sure every btrfs contents are removed? sudo mkcephfs -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf --allhosts --clobber_old_data --mkbtrfs -v after this, when I look at data/osd0, 1, 2, etc. I see 'current' directory but filled with lots of x.x_head directory. I'd thought the freshly-started shouldn't have those head directories. I don't think it is normal?. To get rid of these, I format the disk to ext3/4 and then use the above command too create btrfs.. and the heads are gone. When I tried to mkcephfs without btrfs, (i.e., using ext3/4 fs), I get a superblock error. [osd] sudo = true osd journal = /data/osd$id/journal osd journal size = 1000 osd data = /data/osd$id [osd0] host = ss1 ; I've removed btrfs mkcephfs -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf --allhosts -v ... === osd.0 === /usr/bin/cconf -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf -i 0 -t osd "osd data" "" /usr/bin/cconf -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf -i 0 -t osd "osd journal" "" /usr/bin/cconf -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf -i 0 -t osd "keyring" "" /usr/bin/cconf -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf -i 0 -t osd "btrfs path" "/data/osd0" /usr/bin/cconf -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf -i 0 -t osd "btrfs devs" "" /usr/bin/cconf -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf -i 0 -t osd "btrfs options" "noatime" --- ss1# test -d /data/osd0 || mkdir -p /data/osd0 --- ss1# test -d /data/osd0/journal || mkdir -p /data/osd0 --- ss1# /usr/bin/cosd -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf --monmap /tmp/monmap.5472 -i 0 --mkfs --osd-data /data/osd0 ** WARNING: Ceph is still under heavy development, and is only suitable for ** ** testing and review.
